Some devotees of the God

Composed by- Pijush Kanti Deb
It’s not applicable to all
but some devotees of someone special,
all-known as the almighty God,
seem to be less devotee
but more selfish beggars.
As a selfish beggars,
a devotee becomes a flatterer
throughout his devotion to the God
as he keeps oiling him again and again,
dropping his crocodile’s tears
in begging for his self-centered happiness
but drops neither tears
in showing his true love and regard for his divinity
nor his selfless formal inquiry
‘’How do you do my God?’’.
